| description | F5Bot platform help — free Reddit, Hacker News, and Lobsters keyword monitoring with email alerts, advanced filtering, AI semantic alerts, REST API, webhooks, Slack/Discord, RSS/JSON feeds. Use when F5Bot keyword alerts are drowning you in noise and you need to tighten filtering, the 50 hits/day free limit is causing you to miss important mentions, you want to set up F5Bot webhooks to push alerts to your CRM or dashboard, AI semantic alerts on Ultra aren't matching the right conversations, you need to monitor Reddit and HN on a zero budget, RSS or JSON feeds aren't updating or you want to build a pipeline on them, or you're comparing F5Bot vs Syften vs RedditMentions for Reddit monitoring. Do NOT use for social listening strategy across tools (use /sales-social-listening) or choosing between social listening platforms (use /sales-social-listening). |

If the user's request already provides context, skip to Step 2.
